The health of the players was a big problem for us Dallas Cowboys this season and it doesn’t look like their luck will be changing any time soon. Trevon Diggs joined a long list of injured defensemen when he unexpectedly missed camp on Wednesday.

Dallas’ defense has struggled mightily this season, but it’s hard to judge them too harshly. You saw Micah Parsons, DeMarcus Lawrence, Sam Williams and DaRon Bland all miss time. Even some of their backup players were sidelined as Marshawn Kneeland and Caelen Carson were also sidelined.

The addition of Diggs to the list seems ominous given the multitude of injuries he has already suffered.
